Many 1746 I/O modules provide color-coded removable terminal blocks. These removable terminal blocks let you replace I/O modules without rewiring. A matching color band on the front of the module helps you match the terminal block to the correct type of module. Each terminal block includes self-lifting pressure plates for secure wiring and has barriers on 3 sides to guard against AC cidental shorting of wiring.
